Problems solved by technology

This is of course cumbersome and time-consuming for the patient
In many practical applications, the face size cannot be measured manually (because there is no time), or the absolute size of the user's face is not known in advance, so that the device and method proposed in US 2006 / 0235877 A1 is not only disadvantageous, but also not can be applied in many practical situations

Embodiment Construction

[0064] figure 1 An embodiment of a patient interface recognition system, which may also be referred to as a mask fitting system, for recognizing a patient interface that fits a user's face is shown. Therein, the proposed system is denoted as a whole by reference number 10 . According to the illustrated embodiment, the patient interface recognition system 10 includes a receiving unit 12 for receiving a test picture 14 (see for example Figure 4 ), the test picture 14 includes the face 16 of the user 18. For example, the receiving unit 12 may be implemented as a connection interface suitable for receiving or downloading pictures to the system 10 . Examples could be a USB interface, a Firewire interface, a Bluetooth interface, a wireless LAN interface or an infrared interface. However, the receiving unit can also be a simple interface connected to the Internet for downloading test pictures 14 from any external database. Still further, the receiving unit 12 may be an internal ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a patient interface identification system for identifying a patient interface that is suited for a face (16) of a user (18), comprising: a receiving unit (12) for receiving a test picture (14) including the face (16) of the user (18); a database (22) for storing reference picture including faces of other users, wherein each reference picture is referenced to a patient interface advice; a processing unit (24) for comparing the received test picture (14) with at least a subset of said reference pictures stored in the database (22), wherein comparing said test picture (14) with said subset of reference pictures includes a comparison of image based features of the user's face (16) and the other users' faces; and a user interface (26) for communicating a patient interface advice including information related to a patient interface that is suited for the face (16) of the user (18), which patient interface advice is based on the comparison of said test picture (14) with the subset of reference pictures stored in the database (22).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a patient interface recognition system for recognizing a patient interface adapted to a user's face. In a further aspect, the invention relates to a corresponding method for identifying a patient interface adapted to a user's face. In yet another aspect, the invention relates to a corresponding method of controlling said patient interface recognition system. Still further, the invention relates to a corresponding computer program comprising program code means for causing a computer to carry out the steps of the method when said computer program is run on a computer. Background technique [0002] A patient interface, such as a mask in a pressure support system, is used to deliver gas to the user. Such gases (eg, air, purified air, oxygen, and any variations thereof) are delivered to the user (also referred to as the patient) via the patient interface, either pressurized or unpressurized. [0003] For several chronic d...
